Trigger warning: miscarriage
Grief is a nuanced and varied thing can hits everyone differently and often in unexpected ways. One person who knows about this is Katie Rössler. In late 2018, her life came to a halt. Her mother died unexpectedly, and the following year, she experienced two miscarriages while trying for a third child. This led to burnout, and relationship struggles as she work through parts of her life not turning out the way she’d hoped. Now, after 15 years as a licensed therapist working with individuals, couples, and families, she felt a deeper calling to help high achievers become more confident in creating their dream relationships.
In this episode Katie shares:
- The moment she found out about her mother’s death when she lived overseas
- The pregnancy losses she experienced in the year after her mums death
- Her realisation about grief after her experiences
- The different kinds of grief
- How journaling helped her through her grief
- What can happen when you hold grief in
- Tools for grounding yourself from your grief when you are not in a safe space
- How different people will and wont be able to help us with our grief
- What she suggests to do to get back to friends and people after you have retreated into your grief
- How she suggests you can get people to accept their grief and take support
- Her advice for how people can take the first steps to embracing and working with their grief
Key Quotes
“There's just this mental game that starts to get played of, I must be being punished, there must be something I've done.”
